She's a lot less pissed at the MC than you might think, probably because she's more focused on getting him to kill the guy who hurt Abby. She's also liable to dive headfirst into extremely self-destructive drug habits.I'd say that the contrast between the "good" and "bad" routes isn't so much "striking" as it is somewhat to be expected. This is someone she clearly likes, whether that is "hero worship" or just a physical/sexual attraction, and so by not following her at the club and by not helping her with Abby at either opportunity, she's understandably disillusioned with him for not being the guy she thought he was and is therefore pissed at him. This is the kind of expected reaction you'd get from anyone who holds you in high esteem but then you act like a total ass towards them and as a result, bad shit starts happening to them which they will then blame you for.
On the "good" route, it is entirely possible that she starts to feel something more for him, but they haven't really had that kind of moment yet to show this, not like with Ellen after the kiss in Ch 5, or with Katie in Ch 4, or even with Victoria in Chapters 4 & 7. How the "bad" route could possibly show there's more romantic feelings is quite beyond me because on that route she's angry and annoyed with the MC for letting her down but she doesn't have to be in love with him to feel those feelings.
I think it speaks to the fact the MC is extremely important to her in a way that her non-stop propositioning does not indicate. It is not the show of traditional affection you are probably looking for, but it's something to start from.
